Noob has questions on repairing roof.
Ok so I just bought a travel trailer off of a relative this week. It is a 2010 coachmen catalina 29rls. They had it parked at a campground and a tree fell and poked 3 holes in the top. It didn't rain and it was immediately tarped when it happened so I don't think it seen much if any water. One branch did go all the way thru and punctured to the inside (2 inch hole on roof and 4 inch hole in cabin). What all do I need to buy to patch the holes and seal the roof. I figure I might as well reseal the whole roof since I'm already up there. Thoughts? Suggestions?1.2KViews0likes7CommentsRe: New guy needs help

I was unaware of the sticker on the trailer itself until someone here mentioned it. I'll use that number when I find it but for now that number seems close to what my uncle said.

Thanks for the responses everybody. We sent a couple texts back and forth after posting this and he said the wd setup and the sway bar kit he has on it is coming with the TT. I'm going to go down there later this week and check it out, so hopefully it'll be the right size. Oh and the 2 inch ball was a miscommunication. I said I had to get a new hitch and he said he used a 2 inch, the same as on my truck. Turns out he meant a 2 inch receiver.301Views0likes0CommentsNew guy needs help
Ok, first time poster here. About 3 months ago we bought a pop-up camper. Spent a week camping and hiking and had a blast. Told some family about our time while at a party one night and they mentioned that they had a camper that they no longer needed now that the kids are grown up and moved out. It is a 2010 coachmen catalina 29rls and it was too good of a deal to pass up. So the plan is to pick it up in about 2 weeks or so. Until I bought our pop-up I have never camped or towed anything. We will be using our 2007 Ford Expedition EL to tow it. To be honest, I'm lost when it comes to towing. I can't seem to find a consistent weight/tongue weight for this TT to figure out what kind of hitch I need to buy. My Uncle said he towed it with just a 2 inch ball with his F150. Everything I've read says I need a weight distribution hitch and I'm ok with that, I just don't know what size I need. Do I need 750# bars or 1000# bars or what? Recommendations? Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks1.9KViews0likes9Comments
